FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO
“I am really happy and proud of my team, who made an incredible job. I’ve said it many times, but I want to repeat that. We’ve been amazing, it’s a result we’ve been looking for since last year and it came here in the U.S. Wow! After all the worrk we’ve done in 2024 and a very hard winter, maybe unfair, we worked very hard together. The team helped me a lot and we are back to the fight now. I am very proud of this third place. We celebrate this result and the next goal is to keep working like this.”
FRANCO MORBIDELLI
“I am happy with this race because on Saturday we struggled a bit, but today I felt good despite a bad start. The first laps were packed with battles, but then I could set my pace. Overall, it was a good wewekend, but today we did a step forward. I felt a lot of potential in Sunday’s race. The goal for the next races is to mantain this momentum going and to try to be as close as possibile to the top places.”
PABLO NIETO
“It was a very good race for us because we know that this track is one of the most challenging both physically and technically. I am satisfied with Saturday’s qualifying – Diggia’s second place and Franky’s fifth. I’m very happy with Fabio’s podium and Franco’s fourth place of today’s race. We still miss something, we’re not at our 100% yet. But we’re on the right direction with two consecutive podiums – Franco’s one in Argentina and Fabio today in the United States. We have to keep working like this, in two weeks we will arrive in Qatar, a track we like a lot.”
